Once it was decided that Modi government would get a free pass on the question of a probable Chinese incursion, every Congress leader – from Nehru to Manmohan – was blamed for seceding territory.
Even celebrities like Kareena Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra love some low-stake social media solidarity. But to do justice to George Floyd, we must fix our own house first.
Activists have to wade through a sea of abuse, BJP IT Cell warriors, WhatsApp forwards and UAPA-like laws, but they are still a firewall against the state.
Social media has reacted strongly against a classist Instagram campaign by Kent RO systems, with even its brand ambassador Hema Malini slamming the new ad.
The economy has come to a standstill due to Covid-19, but increased natural disasters, poaching & deforestation prove the environment is still under attack.
Not everyone maintains six-feet of distance, so you must duck, dodge, dive, jump and snake your way out of pandemic-unfriendly proximity from other shoppers.
The abysmal number of women in India’s parliamentary committees on surrogacy, sexual harassment and indecent representation is a symptom of a larger bias.
For the last 11 years, Nehru has been constantly blocking my efforts and causing the fiascos that are my many yojanas and abhiyans. He is the reason most of my initiatives turn into disasters.
India’s industrial output growth saw a 10-month low in June, with Index of Industrial Production (IIP) growing by mere 1.5% as against 1.9% in May 2025.
Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
Right differentiates because pakistan as a nation wants to implement ghazwa e hind to kill or enslave all non believers in INDIA. LEFT columnist whereas have no disagreement with pakistani thinking , but also agree with china on destabilising and insulting INDIA.
Mr Shailesh: You seem to forget that China is Pakistan’s all-weather friend and they together bleed India “by a thousand cuts”. Regardless of the regime in power in Delhi and regardless of whether you are a liberal or a breather of Arnab Goswami’s hot air, that equation has not changed over the past 6 decades or so. And any Tom, Dick & Hariharan knows who the puppet and the puppetmaster are in that relationship.
But the trouble with people like you who seem to have overdosed on gomutra is that you focus on the puppet rather than the puppetmaster. Ideologies such the Pakistani Lashkar e Taiba’s “ghazwa e Hind” and its Hindutva equivalent propounded by the RSS viz. “Akhand Bharath” remain merely the wishful thinking of crackpots on both sides of the border. Of course, people like you might have difficulties in sifting fact from fiction. Especially when facts are not what you see in front of you but what your itchy groined gaurakshak friends tell you.
And reminding Indians, especially blinkered blind bhakths like you that in reality, China has outflanked and outwitted India in Ladakh and Indian territory is being held by the Chinese is not “insulting India”.
Pakistan thinks its competing with India; India thinks its competing with China. Neither are anywhere close to truth. China is competing with the US for global dominance and the US is competing with itself and the world. All of the weirdness makes for a great dysfunctional joint family, called the UN.
India can’t take on china today. India has to improve defense forces and more importantly need a vibrant and powerful economy. So it is prudent and settle the issue non militarily.
The Indian Right cares about India’s borders not Congress,Communists and Leftist who can all be bought for thr right price so Shekar Gupta who is an Anti-Right must watch out otherwise we will destroy you with Congress.JAI HIND
Mr Sunil Chohan: Governments of all hues and stripes and India’s many Prime Ministers who have come and gone have indeed cared for the nation’s borders and the territorial integrity of the nation. That includes everyone – from Jawaharlal Nehru to Narendra Modi, regardless of their party affiliations. Their patriotism is not the issue at hand.
But the problem with gaurakshaks like you is your fanatical belief that patriotism can only come from the bowels of the BJP or the RSS and everyone else is an anti-national. In that puerile, simplistic worldview, your ilk forgets that one of the masterstrokes of Indian foreign policy was the quick dismemberment of Pakistan in 1971 under the leadership of PM Indira Gandhi. Not only was E.Pakistan eliminated as a threat to India’s eastern flank, it also demolished Jinnah’s 2 nation theory that Pakistan was the homeland for India’s Muslims.
I understand itchy groined gaurakshaks reared in RSS shakas many not be able to comprehend the nuances I describe here. But alas Mr Chohan, the Viagra you have been prescribed will not treat your congenital intellectual impotence. So do ahead and bray to your heart’s content. You know, empty vessels and all that …
Indian army high command must be sacked for this strategic disaster !!!!
Srijan Shukla’s article sounds like Rahul Gandhi taunting Modi to show 56 inches on Doklam after he had Whiskey on the rocks and ate spicy Kung Pao chicken at the Chinese Ambassador’s residence in Delhi. Srijan as a journalist should at-least know the basics of diplomacy that cannot be conducted in public glare. You have to allow some quiet space for diplomacy to play and if that doesn’t yield then escape gradually with force. There is a euphemism in play among the diplomats and political leaders at both sides claiming perception difference between two countries on actual borders. Why no one bothered last 70 years to explain what are Chinese claims and all media and political propaganda has been on propping up Pakistan in our psyche?
One would not call Ms Pliable “ right leaning “. She always leans towards the incumbent. Did she have any problems with UPA during its decade in power. The first time I became aware of her existence was when she described what it was to be part of the press contingent on Air India One when Dr Singh was PM. Let us not soil the word Nationalist by appending it to carpetbaggers. We are all nationalists in our own ways but do not wear it on our sleeves, like eight rings with different coloured stones on our fingers or wads of sacred thread on our wrists.
Mr Sanket Singh: Unbelieveable that you would rather fight against Indians who support the Congress rather than the Chinese who invade India making a laughingstock of the Gujarati 56 incher and people like you !
Now what does the script convey to a common man. Any idea?

Title of the article should have been “Venting Anger Against Indian Conservatives ” . Because this article conveys nothing more than that.
